Happy Monday, loves!
In 9 hours, I'll be road tripping with the little ones
to visit my sis in North Carolina for 9 days,
so before I completely unplug,
I wanted to share some snapshots of projects
that I've been cranking out for Edyn's room.
I know. I know.
It's not my bedroom.
I decided to briefly press pause in there
to … [Read more...]

Hi, loves.
I intended to share my Luckett's haul with you today,
but sweet news came along and my little Luckett's finds
will just have to wait.
A couple of months ago, I was invited by Heather of Post Road Vintage
to be contributor to the summer issue of her lovely magazine, Homebound.
Ah!
My {ah!} quickly turned to {gulp} … [Read more...]

I hope you had a lovely weekend and Monday.
The weather was absolutely beautiful here and
Saturday marked the start of my oldest boy's Little League baseball season.
I'll share our little photo shoot on Thursday...and a bit more
outside of laundry, lavender, and lately, furniture painting.
I promised the whole Viv first, so here she … [Read more...]

I think I established in my last post
that Motivational Speaker isn't in my cards ;),
but I'm happy my words resonated with some of you.
I really should stick to laundry n' stuff though.
...like the lavender desk that I painted yesterday.
I've actually painted it thrice.
It used to be white.
(Click HERE for the way before and dabble in … [Read more...]

I seem to be in the habit of posting late Wednesday nights.
After the Springtime weekend rush
with baseball practices, games, and dance lessons, etc.
and then squeaking in some time for projects here and there on Mondays and Tuesdays,
Wednesdays are working for me so I'm just going to go with it.
Pardon. Just thinking out loud … [Read more...]

I haven't been that productive on the blog front this week,
but I certainly have been on the clay tag and mommy front.
Oh my.
The orders have been such a blessing, especially as the holidays approach.
{Thank you.}
That said, I haven't had a moment to work on my kitchen
but I did find a little something for my living room that I'm … [Read more...]

In my last post, I mentioned that I painted and slipcovered the French Country chair
that I picked up a while ago at an estate sale for around $30.00.
Well, here she is all romantic and pretty...
(Oh, she's definitely a girl.)
The chair originally looked like this...
(A perfectly fine chair with beautiful fabric that didn't work with … [Read more...]

Happy Thursday.
Yesterday, I spiced up my front door with some autumnal decor made by yours truly
and a vinyl house number...
The monogrammed hanging was inspired by this gorgeous 6-inch faux bloom (originally with stem)
that I purchased at Hobby Lobby for $2.50 last week.
I {love} the deep raspberry, pinks, and golden … [Read more...]

Hope you're having a lovely week.
(I don't know where it went but apparently it's now Wednesday.)
I unplugged a little the past two days and didn't get a chance to shoot the ruched ruffle tutorial yet
so I'll share the tutorial for the laundry bags that hang in the laundry station in my hallway.
The ruched ruffle tutorial will be … [Read more...]

Hi, sweets.
Hope you're having a lovely weekend!
Tonight, I thought I'd share my shirt slipcover tutorial
for the ruffled cover on the larger white chair in my hallway makeover
that I made for less than a dollar using a white cotton shirt found at a thrift shop.
The first thing I do when I enter a thrift shop is head for the white … [Read more...]

I'm a laundry and vintage lovin' small town girl trying to live simply and appreciate life's blessings like a country girl, while chasing creative design dreams like a big city girl. I'm fixing up our 1964 ranch-style home one stitch, nail and brushstroke at a time, and I write about it all here. Click here to read more about my vintage chic slice of blog pie!
